Description
FDM ATR/FTIR Spectra of Cosmetics and Personal Care Products (570 Spectra)
This collection was run on a Nicolet FTIR with a Pike MIRacle ATR accessory. Spectra were mostly run on a diamond/ZnSe (Zinc Selenide) crystal and a few on a Germanium(Ge) crystal. It is perhaps the first spectral library focusing on retail cosmetic and hygiene products and related raw materials. The products covered are from both the US and European consumer markets.
These spectra are expected to be useful for the retail consumer products industries and for crime labs looking for new trace analysis tools. Manufacturers of all type that address consumer product failures would have a tool for distinguishing between manufacturing process materials and consumer contaminants.
